We are using smart bulbs where it’s just a single bulb as it’s much cheaper for a bulb than a switch, but for downlights we are using Aurora aone in-line smart switches. This means every light in the house can be operated by either a normal physical switch or by SmartThings and also Google home as we connected those two.

Cheers. This is for loads of LED downlights so I just want to replace some switches.
Aurora looks the same as a lot of others I'm finding in that the switch is actually replaced by a smart module and then the physical switch can go anywhere.
As I'm replacing existing switches I was just looking to swap the switch out for something that had both a physical switch and a smart switch integrated but it doesn't seem to be much of a thing.

No Apple stuff so no homekit.
Home Assistant is what seems to have the widest range of compatibility but, as it's unofficial, things do get changed and disappear. I seem to remember google/nest significantly cut the integration.
On a similar vein, what do people recommend for smart light switches? Again, need to work with home assistant (zigbee is fine) and function both as a smart switch and a normal switch. Preferably something with an actual switch rather than touch control but that isn't a deal breaker if it isn't shit.
